Touch2Play Generations and Technical Issues Guide
Kidzpace Touch2Play Service Guide
We have been helping to create better spaces for kids and families in hospitals and clinics for over 20 years. And, because your organization has been such a great and loyal customer you most likely have multiple generations of our Touch2Play or other game systems in your facility.
This time-saving guide is designed to assist with initial troubleshooting and to help identify the generation or model of Touch2Play that may be experiencing an issue. This information will enable our service team to provide support to you or your IT Department more efficiently.
Items to help identify the system you have include:
- Date of purchase or installation
- Color of the system’s cover or cabinet
- Purchase order number used to generate the order
- Picture of the game system
Once the Touch2Play model or generation has been determined, please share with us the basic details of the issue the system is experiencing. For example, tell our service team if the screen is black, if there is an error message on a frozen screen, or if the machine seems to constantly re-boot.
Our service team may ask you to remove the cover of the machine to access the power source or for another reason. On the following pages are some pictures of the various Touch2Play models as well as some basic information as to how to gain access to the game system to begin diagnosing any issues.
Thank you!

DS-140 TOUCH2PLAY MAX
Restart the system and check the power outlet
1. Remove the cover by using the round key sent with the system to open two locks, one on each side.
2. Confirm the unit has power by pressing the power button. You will need to pull the unit toward you to access it. The power button is a round button that is located on the back, at the top of the unit. Confirm there is a green light on the power brick and that the thin black wire is plugged into the unit.
3. If your Touch2Play has no power, please remove it from the casing and unplug the power cord for 30 seconds, then re-plug the cord into the outlet to restart the unit. Make sure the power cord is securely inserted into the game system and that the cord is plugged into the outlet.
4. If the outlet is working correctly and there is still no power, the unit will need repair or replacement. Please call our service department at 800-668-0206, extension #231.
5. If you have any questions related to any of the above steps, please call our service department.

3. If your Touch2Play has no power, please remove it from the casing and unplug the power cord for 30 seconds, then re-plug the cord into the outlet to restart the unit. Make sure the power cord is securely inserted into the game system and that the cord is plugged into the outlet.
4. If the outlet is working correctly and there is still no power, the unit will need repairs. Please call our service department at 800-668-0206, extension #231.
Other tips:
If the unit is running a partial reboot, showing a black screen with the cursor visible on the black screen when touching it, you may be dealing with corrupt software. In this case, we recommend having someone at your facility contact us at 800-668-0206 Ext. 231. The system will need to be connected to the internet and a USB keyboard will also be needed. We will then remotely access the system or verbally assist further with troubleshooting methods.
Remember to clean the fans below the unit and ensure that they work. Replacement fans are available.
